Messerschmitt 163

This rocket plane used hypergolic fuel and had a skid for touchdown. The wheels ( next to it) where jettisoned after take off. That tiny prop on the nose cone belongs to a ramjet turbine to supply electricity to the avionics


other sizes: small medium large original auto

Very cool shot. I also like the Me262 in the background. "V"
